Even after opting best fit for top reinforcement, why does RCDC provides higher reinforcement (as per minimum Pt) at top at mid-span?
This would be typically doubly reinforced section which causes more reinforcement at top even when moment at that location is nominal. In the calculation report it can be clearly checked where Asc-required at mid-span is captured. This is the top reinforcement required at that section.
